Title: Edmonton Newspaper Obit Lookup - Chambers
Post by: skels on Saturday 12 January 13 15:33 GMT (UK)
Hi All,

I wonder if anyone could do me a huge favour I'm looking for the Death Notices/Obituary Notices of

1) Thomas Chambers - date of death I believe is 24 Dec 1953 in Edmonton (or Robb, Jasper, not sure if they had moved into the town later in life)

2) Wife of Thomas - Mary Chambers (nee Findlay) died again I believe 1959, Edmonton (sorry no further details other than year of death).

I would be so appreciative if anyone can come up with these, to complete the story of these two.

Many Thanks

Contact the Edmonton Public Library.  There might be a charge for the obituaries but it shouldn't be much.
